I photoshoped a kid right out of this picture.
















and added a frame to this one.





I have to Pee....

A phrase you love to hear being a Mom of a Toddler. Happens so quickly, from nothing to "Mom I gotta pee".....

music to my ears!

6 weird things

Seriously people what is WEIRD! I've been tag to reveal six weird things about me...

1> people might think it's weird that an accountant is creative.

2> some think that it's weird that I spent most of my high school years without a "best friend"

3> is it weird that I'm an accountant but really hate the monthly cycle of paperwork?

4> I know it's weird that I can never sit still when I watch a movie at my own house, but don't get up at friends or at the theatre!

5> it's really weird that I've never seen Casablanca

6> it's weird that I'm friends with Tara and Cheryl!

GOOD NIGHT~

Calendars



Pink Pink I used Pink


I started calendars this year.... hurray for me I know I know.

One for my parents and one for the in-laws. I also got going on doing my in-laws album again since I've converted from CM.





Carson's ART

well as Tara and I were creating on the "big" table right beside Carson, he created this.



I literally GASPED when I looked up to see this master piece. When I took this photo I had already wiped some of it off, but once I was convinced it would come off I took a few seconds and grapped the camera!

Needless to say he's not aloud to paint any time soon!

PS Thanks for not laughing too loud Tara.....

Patience

Lately I don't have it. It's weeks like this I don't think I'm cut out to be a Mom, let alone a Mom of more than one! I'm leaning more and more to just keeping our family as is!

I go by my gut most and of the time: and it hasn't let me down before. Mind you I'm not ready to have DH snipped yet either.....

Went to bed @ 8:30 last night, feeling much better now LOL!

3 reasons I LOVE being a MOM

1. that feeling of unconditional love
2. that feeling of nuturing
3. being responsible for the upbringing of a child

3 reasons I DON'T love being a MOM

1. the fact that I'm constantly needed
2. the word WHY
3. being resposible for the upbringing of a child

Oh the pressure

So I've been recruited, okay very strongly recommended.... to make an album for Lyric.

Why do I find this difficult! Oh the pressure..... I told Ginny it will be a while as this will be hard for me as I'll want it perfect... LOL...

Ginny's reply: I don't care if you give it to her for her 1st birthday as a matter of fact you can just keep an on going album. Works for me....

Ya I guess LOL!

Maybe I'll try doing 8.5 x 11

Christmas





Christmas was great.

My son is an angel. He did amazing. Three days, full days, with no naps! We really had a nice paced, enjoyable Christmas morning and Carson loved to give the gifts just as much as he loved receiving them!



I have some film to develope next week!

Vizsla's





We need another dog, yes I knew it would come. Carson loves them and I miss having an animal in the house. It feels incomplete.

I thought I'd want another Ridgeback, but I think we're going to go for a Vizsla. Their similarities stop at their looks.

Ridgebacks are hound dogs described as

Aloof, Independant, Prey-driven, Aristocratic, Predatory (aloof was Chiana's middle name!)

Vizslas are a Sporting dogs, sporting dogs are described as

Companionable, Rugged, Sociable, Obedient, Athelic

Vizsla Temperament: Intelligent, obedient and easy to train (like the sound of that), gentle-mannered and affectionate, likes water.

Of course they need 45 to 60 mins a day of excersice but they are a smaller dog than Ridgebacks and I'd like to do agility with my new dog.


Singing

Carson loves to sing!

Songs like :

Twinkle Twinkle
Bob the Builder (which I had to look up on the net so I knew more than Scoop, Much and Dizzy)
and some Treehouse shows:
Toopy and Bino (Toopy that's me and my friend Bino)
Max and Ruby....

but lately he's been singing

WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS and of course he doesn't know any other words LOL

nice to be back....
nice to be missed....

this picture cracks me up!

The Sale

Well we did it! We sold our stuff to the public. "We" meaning Tara and I!

Could have been worse, could have been better, but it's done and I feel pretty good about it!

Ryan and I went to the first Christmas party of the season. One of four for us LOL!

Sometimes!

Somedays are better than others! Somedays I just don't want to be a Mom. Ryan has been working alot and mostly he has Sundays off.

Not today, and this morning I had a little pitty party. I just didn't want to be "ON" ya know!

I'm good now.... (amazing how a cute and funny 2.5 yr old can get you out of a mood)

Trying to get the incentive to get myself and Carson dressed to shovel the driveway, in between of course, laudry, tiding the house and oh yeah getting more stuff done for the craft show on Dec 2nd! (okay maybe a little pity party was left in me LOL)
